This garden is inspired by the natural beauty of the state of Oregon, with its planting, natural crisp clear water falls and forest planting. The garden will include conifer trees of differing ages to highlight the importance of regenerative travel. 

Enormous boulders have been used to create the water feature, with some of the boulders weighing up to 1.5tons in weight, to reflect the natural beauty of Oregon’s waterfalls. 

Insect attracting planting is the focus of this garden, inspired by the importance of crops and vineyards pollination to the state. 

Oregon has beautiful wild meadows, so an abundance of wildflowers are present in this show garden. The planting is natural in appearance and focuses on pollinating plants and flowers. The overall colour scheme is burnt orange, blue and white with a tapestry of greens. The garden will be recycled post show, with some items returned to suppliers, some items recycled locally, and other items donated to charity.
